Re: [FMPP] any way to flag files that where replacements occured ?

[Erich O. <er...@va...>]

At this point just detecting the fact that a file was infact changed 
(had interpolations) would be sufficient.   At install time, I just want 
to save off originals that have interpolations so that an install set 
can be updated if there are parameter/variable changes.   The actual 
variable is a nice to have but not necessary now.  With the exception of 
this issue FMPP seems to meet all of my other requirements.  If you 
could point me in the right direction, I'd be more than happy to work on 
a hack and send it back to you so that you can decide whether or not to 
include it in your next version.
